Christmas at Avebury Manor

Return to Avebury Manor this Christmas for decorations, lights, and festive memories as the doors open for the first time since January 2024.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

For two years Avebury Manor has been sleeping; its doors closed to the world outside as it readies itself for a new chapter. Suspended in time, in a space between the past and the future, the manor dreams of Christmas’ gone. Memories of festive magic, twinkling lights, and choral music fill the rooms where nothing is quite as it once was. In this world of dreamscape and seasonal magic, journey through the manor where dreams whisper and new discoveries await around every corner.
